[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1838948] Re: eog assert failure: eog: ../../../../src/cairo-xlib-surface-shm.c:619: _cairo_xlib_shm_pool_create: Assertion `*ptr != NULL' failed.

A viable work around seems to be increasing shared memory via the sysctl.conf file and opening a small (?KB) image before opening a larger (?MB) image. This does cause a noticable system lag when the mouse cursor passes over the rendered image window. add the following line: kernel.shmmax = 10737
